The section contains information about the purpose of Kaspersky Security Center Linux, its main features and components, and ways to purchase Kaspersky Security Center Linux.

Kaspersky Security Center Linux (also referred to as Kaspersky Security Center) is designed to deploy and manage protection of client devices by using Linux-based Administration Server.

Kaspersky Security Center Linux enables you to install Kaspersky security applications on devices on a corporate network, remotely run scan and update tasks, and manage the security policies of managed applications. As an administrator, you can use a detailed dashboard that provides a snapshot of corporate device statuses, detailed reports, and granular settings in protection policies.

In comparison with Kaspersky Security Center that has Windows®-based Administration Server, Kaspersky Security Center Linux has a different feature set.

Kaspersky Security Center Linux is an application aimed at corporate network administrators and employees responsible for protection of devices in a wide range of organizations.

Using Kaspersky Security Center, you can do the following:

  • Create a hierarchy of Administration Servers to manage the organization's network, as well as networks at remote offices or client organizations.

    The client organization is an organization whose anti-virus protection is ensured by the service provider.

  • Create a hierarchy of administration groups to manage a selection of client devices as a whole.
  • Manage an anti-virus protection system built based on Kaspersky applications.
  • Perform remote installation of applications by Kaspersky and other software vendors.
  • Perform centralized deployment of license keys for Kaspersky applications to client devices, monitor their use, and renew licenses.
  • Receive statistics and reports about the operation of applications and devices.
  • Receive notifications about critical events during the operation of Kaspersky applications.
  • Manage encryption of information stored on hard drives of Windows-based devices and removable drives.
  • Manage users' access to encrypted data on Windows-based devices.
  • Perform inventory of hardware connected to the organization's network.
  • Centrally manage files moved to Quarantine or Backup by security applications, as well as manage files for which processing by security applications has been postponed.

You can purchase Kaspersky Security Center Linux through Kaspersky (for example, at https://www.kaspersky.com) or through partner companies.
